My eyes are closed, the night is sticky Yet, there’s a breeze sometimesIn those moments I forgot the road I’m on I forget what it truly means No matter how hard my eyes are shut, reality awaits Perhaps, if I wait long enough, what is real will have changed Perhaps, the decision will no longer be mine to make. Yet, I know what I face…I know it as well as I know myself Too bad, you can’t hide from the sound This battle has been a hard fought one …A battle fought with dignity, honor, and unparalleled graceThough it seemed at times I was alone Though it seemed at times I hadn’t the strength to lift my sword My eyes sting from the sweat of my brow, as I adjust my armor to fight more

It was you that provided my strength You whose face I look upon and feel the warmth of hopeYou are why I continue to fightIt is you that make me whole
